What Great Love

 

Even knowing what was about to happen…

 

“AND ON THE NIGHT HE WAS

betrayed

HE BROKE BREAD AND LIFTED IT UP AND

gave thanks.”

1 Corinthians 11:23-24

 

 

LIVING

He loved me

DYING

He saved me

BURIED

He carried my sins far away

RISING

He justified; freely, forever

ONE DAY HE’S COMING,

Oh, glorious day!

~ John Wilbur Chapman

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God sent the Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
